‘CalFresh’ (Food Stamps)

To see if you are eligible for CalFresh, you will need to visit an LA Department of Public Social Services (LA DPSS) office and speak with a caseworker.

Appointments are highly recommended (wait times are generally very long, often over 2 hours, even with an appointment). You can schedule an appointment online: http://dpss.lacounty.gov/wps/portal/dpss
